Yield Hunting: Alternative Income Opportunities is a full-service retirement income offering that is devoted to helping members construct a solid portfolio of high-yielding securities.

Our goal is to find yield in a yieldless world. For those that are approaching retirement or are already there, we have one pledge to you: we do not sacrifice yield generation for excessive risk. Some services will try and earn you an extra percentage of yield at any cost- exposing their investors to absurd amounts of risk. Our portfolio is much less risky than the S&P 500.

The Yield Hunting Service Includes...:

Portfolio Models- Our models in Google Sheets (free Excel) clearly detail our investment strategies, updating with real time pricing. They show our three portfolios, the Core, Muni, and Peripheral, as well as when you should buy, sell, or hold. The models show all key pertinent information pertaining to each investment, to help you make a more informed decision. Below is an example of a section of the Core Portfolio and just some of the info it details:

Monthly Newsletter - Details the current investing environment, portfolio construction techniques and advice, and a review of our model portfolios. We do offer past issues for free. Simply message us that you would like to receive a past newsletter and provide an email address to send it to.

* The Core Portfolio has exhibited SUBSTANTIALLY less volatility than the S&P 500 in the first six months of the year.

We calculate the volatility in the first half of this year at 3.73% on an annualized basis. That compares to the S&P 500 at 11.8%. In other words, we had less than a third of the price volatility for a similar return. Put another way, we captured 87% of the up move but only 31.6% of the volatility.

The Sharpe ratio for the Core in 1H18 was 0.62 compared to just 0.22 for the S&P 500.
